Everyone either burned out from ecstasy overuse and stayed home on bennies while flinching at the doorbell, or moved into middle-management, bought a cheap 90's house and starting secretly voting Tory.
as ever, commerical attention
Oasis
GIRL POWER
the 1994 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act

Unironically black people.
Luckily people started realizing the Germans were doing better electronic music and just started listening to that.
Late-90s British tech house is massive though.

Piece of shit
>Germans
Lol outclassed by niggers, embarrassing
These, but the underground music stayed good thanks to warp, rephlex, etc
it's still good. it never died. only tourists believe that.
Britpop bands
Blur, Oasis, Pulp, Elastica, that sort. Culturally moved from shelving pills to sinking pints again. Besides it was a financially unviable scene because venues made very little money from electronic bands because everyone took pills and didn't drink, and that is how most clubs rake in revenue, from alcohol
the fat of the land by the prodigy hit double platinum in december 1997 months after oasis released be here now which to a lot of fags in here its the album that killed britpop... so i dont see how britpop killed the electronic scene in the uk... fatboy slim and chemical brothers were still having success in the late 90s after britpop died
This is over a 15 year span, a lot changes in that time
Late 80s and early 90s
Madchester
Acid House
then Britpop in the early and mid 90s
then big beat came along during the late 90s
Chemical Brother, Crystal Method and Prodigy are vastly different to State 808
The Police. It's always the police. They cracked down on all raves. And then when it was dead the mainstream picked it up with the only ones that made any money from it.
Can you list some gems?
